Remember when the Internet went crazy after Amar'e Stoudemire lost his battle with that fire extinguisher following Game 2 of the Knicks' first round match-up against the Miami Heat? We sure do. In a recent interview with Artrell and Andy of FOX Sports Radio, Amar'e was asked about that infamous night and the star forward took the opportunity to clarify some misconceptions, as well as defending his actions.
"I'm a passionate player"? That's the only excuse reason Amar'e could come up with when discussing the incident? While it would be a reach to say that STAT's absence was the catalyst in the Knicks getting bounced in the first round, Stoudemire's "passion" interfered with making the smart decision. So, more wise choices and less passionate moments next season. OK, Amar'e?
